happy 2008 everyone! yes, it's 12:30 am on new year's day and i'm sitting in front of my computer. i'm sick with a cold and a nose that won't stop running, and christien is on my bed at the tail end of a bout with food poisoning.
needless to say, we didn't head out to enjoy the nite's festivities and instead had chinese take-out for dinner (salt & pepper pork chops, chinese broccoli with oyster sauce and yang chow fried rice) and enjoyed the radio countdown provided by 99.7. hope you were able to celebrate with something more tasty and festive! have a great new year's day!!

minute reviews
- 2.29 - crepevine (inner sunset) - if you're a regular reader of this blog, you know that crepevine is one of my favorite standby restaurants. well recently christien and i discovered another reason to drag oursevles out of bed on the weekends before 1pm: swedish oatmeal pancakes! hearty, oatey, but surprisingly fluffy and tender, these oatmeal pancakes are AMAZING, especially with some berry compote and maple syrup. we've gone to crepevine 4 times this month just for them. if you're not a crepevine fan, just for you cafe in the dogpatch also has excellent oatmeal pancakes, although they're not as big.
- 2.22 - thai chef (castro) - as if we didn't have enough thai joints in the castro, i was a bit skeptical walking into this modern decor restaurant, expecting high prices and small portions. prices turned out to be moderate, portions were definitely on the smaller side, but i was quite impressed by the intensity of flavors in our tom kha gai, panang curry, and stir-fried eggplant with pork. but either they have a heavy hand with salt or i was really parched. i had like 10 glasses of water. all in all, not a bad place though, and definitely more roomy than the quaint thailand restaurant around the corner.
